Can anyone give a view on Maline Berger, quality and fit?

I really love this jacket https://www.johnlewis.com/by-malene-birger-claye-fabric-button-front-blazer-dark-grey-melange/p115422371 either with the trousers in the same fabric or a skirt in a contrast colour eg https://www.bymalenebirger.com/gb/en/ready-to-wear/skirts/edena-midi-skirt/104059050.html#color-selector and I think I could put a lot of different outfits together for work and smartish things (maybe even the jacket open with a tshirt or cami with jeans) from these. It's all quite expensive though so would welcome thoughts on quality.

Balancing classic form with contemporary ease – so does the Edena skirt. The tailored midi design has a wide A-line silhouette, a zip, hook and button closure, side pockets and considered belt loops. Complete the tailored look with a blazer or contrast...

I've had some of their stuff, vintage, from years ago, and it was quite a matronly fit. What I mean by that is, big biceps and big busoms were incorporated nicely. 'Sturdy German Grandma' cuts. Good tailoring, proper seams, darts, all that. I see they've had a 'refresh', so can't tell you about the modern pieces. TrustPilot has a lot of one star reviews, translated from Danish it seems people are currently complaining about poor quality items, shoddy workmanship, fading garms, problems returning items, etc.
